Abstract: A theoretical analysis is given for a series of 8 different variants of the pebble-bed reactor in the "once through" fuel management scheme. The comparison brings the insight into the parametric sensitivities and into the development potential of this type. The thorium/U-233 recycling fuel cycle allows to increase the conversion ratio up to the range between 0.90 and 0.95. The feasibility is outlined for changing over between different fuel cycles under full power operation. - The study is complemented by a review of the relevant previous researches.
